Ji Qingzhou rested at home for another day, and then went to the last road show promotion.
When Lian Jingxing saw him, he couldn’t help asking, “Have you rested?”
Ji Qingzhou nodded, “Brother, are you ready to rest after this busy period?”
“Yes.” Lian Jingxing responded, “By the way, are you participating in this season of ’48 Hours of Battle’?”
“Yes.” Ji Qingzhou replied, he told the program director that time, as long as he didn’t maliciously cut his scenes to suppress him, then after the show aired, if he became popular, he would continue to join at a friendly price. Although this verbal agreement was later annulled by Zhou Chengfeng, in the end, this was the entertainment industry, “48 hours of Battle” was one of the hit variety shows, since the program invited him, he was also willing to give the program face.
“What about you, brother?”
“I’ll also participate.”
Now Ji Qingzhou was a little surprised, “I thought you wouldn’t participate in it.”
After all, in the past two years, most of the artists like Lian Jingxing had stopped participating in variety shows, Lian Jingxing had already been on two seasons of “48 Hours of Battle”, he didn’t expect him to also participate in this season.
“The variety show isn’t troublesome to record and it earns a lot of money. Besides,” Lian Jingxing looked at him.” I need to discuss something with the director of the program group before I can participate in another season.”
“That’s good, if you’re not there, I wouldn’t be used to it.”
Lian Jingxing smiled, “You aren’t as weak as you think, even if I’m not there, you will perform well, I believe in you.”
Ji Qingzhou was a little embarrassed, he smiled and didn’t respond.
The release of “Broken Light” successfully helped Ji Qingzhou and Lian Jingxing gain a wave of popularity, in addition to the increase in pure fans of the two people, the brotherhood of Lin Luofeng and Lin Luoyang touched many people. # LianZhou # instantly topped the CP super talk list, Chu Cheng looked at these two words and angrily bought a batch of water army for his and Ji Qingzhou’s #ChengZhou# CP.
The “48 Hours of Battle” crew took advantage of the heat of “Broken Light” and took the lead in officially announcing Lian Jingxing and Ji Qingzhou’s participation in the show, and CP fans instantly became more active, further pushing the two people to the hot search list.
Chu Cheng looked at the CP fans comments, “Together again! One of the most popular artist now is Zhouzhou, right? Brother has always taken care of Zhouzhou ah!”
“It’s been a year! It’s been a year! Last year at this time Zhouzhou was with brother, this year he’s still with him, I’m crying!”
“Dead. I’ll love Zhouzhou and brother for life, I hope they both can always be so good.”
Chu Cheng watched and couldn’t help but ask Ji Qingzhou, “Who exactly does Lian Jingxing like? How come he hasn’t announced it yet? Do you know your CP is now ranked first? Do you think this is appropriate? I am your real boyfriend, and now, we’re in fifth place! Fifth place! My God, I’ve never gotten this kind of ranking in my life, I’m going to be ridiculed to death by my brother, okay?”
Ji Qingzhou thought he was a bit cute, “You really care about your brother.”
“Is it him I care about? What I care about is obviously the fact that we’re a real couple, but our CP was crushed, should this be? It’s so undeserved!
Ji Qingzhou shook his head, took out his phone and selected a photo of the movie ticket stub and posted it on Weibo: Premiere with Chu Cheng.
“It’s okay, right?”
Chu Cheng immediately forwarded the post: Premiere with Ji Qingzhou.

“Boing boing, today is also a day to shed tears for the beautiful love #ChengZhou#.”
“#ChengZhou# is so sweet, I feel like I can’t even carry the flag peacefully.”
“Sister, I can, I am strong!”
Chu Cheng: …… I don’t need such a philandering CP fan, roll!
Towards the end of the year, the entertainment industry was always very lively, all aspects of awards shows were endless, Ji Qingzhou with “A Page of Love Poem” as Zhang Fei and “Broken Light” as Lin Luoyang, the two roles had nominations. These awards required daily votes from fans, and Ji Qingzhou sometimes looked at them and thought they were working quite hard. Every time he thought so, he posted a selfie or a picture of himself, which could be considered a little gift to his fans.
Soon, however, he became busy, because the Seal Glory Festival unexpectedly nominated Chu Cheng for the award of the most popular newcomer of the year.
Although Chu Cheng starred as Zhuang Xiangyang, he wasn’t included in all the nominations because he wasn’t involved in the public promotions. The Seal Glory staff only gave him this nomination because “A Page Of Love Poem” was an online drama from their website. The staff didn’t take him too seriously, thinking that he wouldn’t win the prize.
However, Chu Cheng’s fans saw the nomination and crazily voted, Ji Qingzhou as his Fan Association President, naturally took it very seriously. He regularly clocked in every day, promoted him, and held activities sometimes in order to get extra votes, and he also followed the organizer’s requirements, while cheering for Chu Cheng.
Chu Cheng watched him sit in front of the computer throughout the day, finally in the evening, he went over and asked, “Why are you still up? It’s so late.”
“I’m finishing this set.”
“What set?” Chu Cheng went over to take a look and saw his name, he was a bit confused, “What are you doing getting these?”
“I want to get you to first place.” Ji Qingzhou said.
While he was voting, he sent a screenshot of the current voting situation to the group, motivating everyone, “Not far from first place, let’s go!”
The girls in the group who hadn’t slept saw that he was still voting, so they got up and followed him, which quickly made Chu Cheng’s vote count rise again.
Chu Cheng sighed, “I’m not in the Industry, it doesn’t matter if I don’t win.”
“You aren’t afraid that if you fall out of the top three, your brother will tease you?” Ji Qingzhou found his weakness.
Chu Cheng saw that he used his own words to block him and helplessly laughed. He walked over and picked him up, “Okay, don’t worry about this award, I don’t want to attend this kind of award ceremony, understand?”
“You don’t want to walk the red carpet with me?” Ji Qingzhou asked him.
“Of course I’ll walk the red carpet with you, but not this red carpet.”
Ji Qingzhou blushed a little.
He looked at Chu Cheng, “But I want to help you get the award, this award doesn’t need technical content, as long as I and your fans work hard, it will be fine.”
“Don’t you want to win the award yourself? Aren’t you also within this nomination?”
“I still have other nominations, I don’t care about this one. The focus of my fans is also not on this award, so I want to take this for you, you acted on TV once, you should have a memento.”
“That’s fine.” Chu Cheng placed him on the bed, “You want to win it for me, then win it, but take care of yourself and don’t stay up late.”
Ji Qingzhou nodded, “I’ll stay up for a little while longer.”
“No.”
Ji Qingzhou felt helpless, “But I only have a few tasks left to finish, half an hour, half an hour is enough.” He looked at Chu Cheng and shook his arm, “Okay, brother?”
Chu Cheng held him back, “You’re calling me brother this time?”
“You’re my idol.”
Chu Cheng couldn’t resist, he finally moved his laptop over, and also brought his tablet over, supported by the table on the bed.
“Come on, I’ll do it with you, try to get it done in 15 minutes, let’s hurry to bed.”
“How can any idol vote for himself?” Ji Qingzhou laughed.
“Am I doing it for myself? I’m spoiling my fans, my President Lord isn’t sleeping, how can I?”
Ji Qingzhou sniffed and moved closer to him, “Brother, then do you have fans?”
Chu Cheng pinched his face a little, “Try asking again?”
Ji Qingzhou obediently sat back, “I was wrong, so brother better sleep well tonight.”
Chu Cheng lightly hummed, “I think it is some people that don’t want to sleep well.”
Ji Qingzhou looked at him with an innocent expression, “Is there? No.”
He lowered his head and continued voting, Chu Cheng came close to look, understood and asked for the account details then he also began to work. He worked while lamenting, he really didn’t expect that, in addition to Ji Qingzhou posting comments, he would actually vote for him one day. Chu Cheng felt that he had lived for a long time, and sure enough, he could see anything.
When Ji Qingzhou finished working, he was pulled by Chu Cheng to lie down. He was in a good mood, he laid in Chu Cheng’s arms and chatted for a while, until Chu Cheng threatened to refuse the award, Ji Qingzhou closed his mouth, but he still couldn’t help laughing.
In order to share the workload of Ji Qingzhou, Chu Cheng would help him in his spare time every day. He was really embarrassed to tell others about it, so he and Ji Qingzhou went on silently. Ji Qingzhou, together with Xiao Qian, mobilized the supporters and told them: Come on, victory is in sight.
Finally, after Ji Qingzhou’s group of fans voted day and night, Chu Cheng climbed to the first place and won the award of the most popular newcomer in the Seal Glory Festival.
Ji Qingzhou was very happy and pointed to the computer to show him, “Look, your first award.”
When Chu Cheng saw him happy, he also felt a little happy, “It may also be the only one.”
“That’s not necessarily true, when there’s this kind of award show in the future, I’ll continue to help you vote.”
Chu Cheng smiled and stroked his head without saying anything. Zhuang Xiangyang wasn’t a classic character, even though people still remembered him this year, after two years, maybe they’d forget. But it didn’t matter, Chu Cheng thought, he didn’t care, if not that Ji Qingzhou insisted, he wasn’t actually interested in this festival, let alone the awards.
But what Ji Qingzhou liked, he’d also like.
This was what Ji Qingzhou earned by voting for him with great care. His heart was far more precious than this trophy.
“Thank you, Lord President.” Chu Cheng kissed him, “It’s just that I might have to trouble Lord President to collect the award for me.”
“Aren’t you attending?”
“I’m not fit.” Chu Cheng said, “There is nothing wrong with acting in the drama, but attending this kind of event, I know their bosses and going as an actor isn’t quite appropriate, do you understand?”
Ji Qingzhou nodded, “Then I’ll help you get the award.”
“Mm.” Chu Cheng smiled and looked at him, “But I can go with you, watch you walk the red carpet, and then wait for you backstage.”
“Okay.” Ji Qingzhou felt that this wasn’t bad, “I’m happy that you can go with me.”
Chu Cheng smiled and hugged him, “Next time, we’ll find a suitable opportunity, I’ll accompany you to record a variety show or do something else, let’s do this first, next time I will accompany you properly.”
“You want to accompany me to a variety show?”
“You don’t want to?” Chu Cheng asked rhetorically.
“I’m very sought-after, I have to think about it.” He said so, but there was a smile in his eyes that couldn’t be hidden, Chu Cheng looked at him, leaned over and kissed his eyes.
Unlike Chu Cheng’s luck, in mid to late January, the Golden Laurel Awards announced the shortlist, it wasn’t surprising that Lian Jingxing was shortlisted for the best male lead, while Ji Qingzhou wasn’t shortlisted for the best newcomer. When Chu Cheng learned the news, he specially took time from work, and cooked the two dishes Ji Qingzhou liked.
His study time wasn’t long, so his cooking skills weren’t yet good, but when Ji Qingzhou saw it, he was very surprised.
“Were you very worried about me?” He asked Chu Cheng.
Chu Cheng didn’t say anything, instead he silently looked at him tenderly.
Ji Qingzhou patted his shoulder, “You all think I’m too fragile.” He said, “You, brother, Anyi, and Ying Nian, one by one, you’re all afraid that I can’t bear it. But I don’t think it’s a big deal.”
Ji Qingzhou leaned on the kitchen table and calmly said, “I knew this role wouldn’t win the award, it can’t even be included in the list of finalists. I knew from the beginning that the character’s persona was very thin, how could it get an award? In terms of character, I like this character. In terms of resource follow-up, this character got me the director’s appreciation and helped me get the male lead role in <<On Earth>>. Then it was a very good role, I played him, I’m not only not regretful, I am grateful, and that is enough.”
“How can I take advantage of all the good things in this world? Too much luck and one will feel that luck isn’t worth anything. The luckiest thing that happened to me so far is that I met you, so compared to this, all the others are not that important. This is the first film I acted in, but it won’t be the last one, I’ll win more, I believe in me, do you believe in me?”
“Of course.”
“Then isn’t it good?” Ji Qingzhou smiled and looked at him.
Chu Cheng looked at him for a long time, then he suddenly smiled, he stepped forward and hugged Ji Qingzhou, “I’m proud of you.”
“I will become your pride.” Ji Qingzhou said warmly.
—because I love you.
He tilted his head, kissed Chu Cheng, and smiled at him.
